I would actually love it . The Jets would have an opportunity at either the top RB, the top edge rusher or the top offensive tackle in the draft and still have the opportunity to get a solid QB prospect in the 2nd round .

Sign Cousins, take Barkley it Chubb, whichever of the two falls to them, and take Lauletta or Falk later on in the draft.

To be honest, I haven't seen much of him. I just know there's a lot of buzz around him right now.

I've seen Falk play. I actually like him a lot.

Falk is very accurate and accuracy is my favorite skill in a QB. Falk plays tough and he’s going to be very good if he gets the proper coaching. My only concern is his footwork under center and decision making. Good coaching will fix that right up and you’ll see him succeed based on that accuracy trait. It’s soooo important .. arm strength is good but you don’t need better arm strength over better accuracy. Brady never had the strongest arm.

Jets Will Take a Long-Term Approach in Free Agency

New York’s AFC Representative Will Be Active But Smart in March

Last year, the Jets had to clean the house and shop for some bargain deals. This year, the house is in order and they will have the ability to spend once the NFL’s free agency and trading periods commence on March 14.

But with more money in his pocket, general manager Mike Maccagnan will maintain a prudent approach this spring. He remains intent on building a winner for the long haul, using free agency as a complementary piece to the draft.

“This year coming up and the following year, we have the ability to build this in terms of improving this team to where we want it to be,” Maccagnan said at his season-ending news conference. “But I don’t think necessarily that you take an approach where you just mortgage the future and try to do everything in one year.”

According toOvertheCap.com, the Jets are currently more than $73 million under the salary cap projection of $178 million. That number is expected to grow before free agency beings and at the present time, no other NFL club has more 2019 salary cap space than the Green & White.

Last February, the Jets waved goodbye to the likes of Nick Mangold, Darrelle Revis, Brandon Marshall, Nick Folk and Breno Giacomini. But the landscape has changed dramatically and Maccagnan could elect to re-sign a few of his 15 unrestricted free agents prior to free agency.

“I would say we have a lot of cap space,” he said in January. “We do have some players that are currently free agents who we’d like to re-sign, and we’ll work through that process in time.”

“I think we are going to be very active in free agency, but again, we haven’t made our final decisions on allocating our resources,” Maccagnan said. “I do think we have a lot of potential to improve this team going forward, and we’ll focus on players that we can acquire from a talent standpoint that kind of fit what we want to do both from an ability and a character standpoint. I think we have the potential to help move this team forward.”

Think a lot of people didn't like the Davis who played here his last two years. It's hard not to like the Davis who played here last year. In the conversation for best player on the team.
